Hi,

-->BAK and BK files usually are backups of other documents or files.The BAK (or BK) file extension normally represents files that are backup copies of other file. There is no 'standard' file format for BAK files. BAK files can represent virtually anything.

--> portal archieve format is the one that you can deploy on your portal and run it on portal, PAR files are nothing but these files, but when you deploy it , a .BAK is upended to the PAR name, that is because a backup is created

Backup, often created automatically by various programs or the operating system; for example, Windows may create BAK files for the System.ini and Win.ini files.

So for your application to get deployed, it has to be in .PAR format, so this is why you remove .bak for PAR file name
